RCA Studios 1 and 2 (sometimes referred to as Studios A and B) were located on the ground floor of the building at 155 East 24th Street, on the block between Third and Lexington Avenues. The building was originally built as a seven-story stable in 1907 for Fiss, Doer & Carroll Horse Co., who at the time supplied many of the horses for use in operation of the transit system and later for the war effort in World War I.

John B. Doerr (1840–1901), President

William Fiss (1842–1908), Vice President

Joseph D. Carroll (1866–1912), Treasurer

Homer Bryson Carroll (1851–1908), partner

William F. Doerr, Auctioneer^[5]

The Broadcasting Yearbook's first listing for the 24th St. address was in 1937.

The Gramercy Studios of the Radio Corporation of America Picture Phone (now RCA) became the occupants of the stable building. The building was then purchased in 1942 by Paramount Filling Stations, Inc.^[6]
